Get the Acetyl L-Carnitine Advantage to Support Memory and Physical Function

It has been said before, but it bears repeating, there are no magic cures for the aging that besets us all—especially when it comes to brain health. Finding the right supplement to support healthy brain function can be as complex as navigating the human mind itself.

Which is why when it comes to brain health, Dr. Whitaker recommends supplementing with the amino acid Acetyl L-Carnitine to support brain function and memory, as well as the health of your muscles, and so much more. It’s been one of his core recommendations for decades, and although there are ingredients and products new to the market, Acetyl L-Carnitine continues to be one of his top recommendations for brain health. You see, your body can not produce this essential amino acid, but it is one of the only amino acids that can cross the blood-brain barrier, the massive neural network of blood vessels and capillaries that help support and nourish the brain. It also helps fight free-radical damage throughout the body. By crossing over this barrier, Acetyl L-Carnitine works to support nerve cells, cellular energy production in the brain, and provides additional antioxidant protection against free radicals.

Research shows support for memory and cognitive health

Acetyl L-Carnitine has been the subject of extensive research over the years demonstrating its important role in maintaining the health of cellular membranes, the building blocks that make up your tissues and skeletal form, and its role in cognitive function as well. One study showed significant improvements in cognitive performance after 8 weeks of supplementing with Acetyl L-Carnitine.1

In another study, 481 individuals were given 1,500 mg of Acetyl L-Carnitine and after 90 days showed improvements in cognitive performance and aspects of memory and mood.2 In a third study, individuals were given 2 grams of Acetyl L-Carnitine daily and were shown to have reduced mental fatigue by improving concentration.3

Supports healthy nerve transmission and function

As we age, keeping our nerves firing normally is crucial for health. Research has investigated the ability of Acetyl L-Carnitine to maintain healthy nerve function and transmission. In a yearlong study of 333 individuals, those that supplemented with 2,000 mg of Acetyl L-Carnitine better supported their nerve conduction and transmission versus those taking placebo.4

Supports healthy energy levels and reduced physical discomfort

Studies have evaluated Acetyl L-Carnitine’s role in individuals experiencing fatigue, muscle soreness, and discomfort. In one study, women supplementing with 1,500 mg of Acetyl L-Carnitine for 12 weeks saw reductions in muscle soreness as well as improvements in mood and overall quality of life measures.5 A second study in which individuals experiencing fatigue and muscle discomfort supplemented with 2,000 mg of Acetyl L-Carnitine per day for three months also showed significant reductions in fatigue and improved energy levels.6

Like most well-researched ingredients, the above studies are at varying dosages. Because of this, Dr. Whitaker’s Acetyl L-Carnitine comes in easy to take 500 mg capsules, allowing you to supplement with the dose to support your overall health needs.
